Abstract
In 1204 crusaders sacked the city, then named Constantinople. For the next thousand years, the Byzantine Kings hid safely behind the massive walls of Constantinople. Then in 1453, with the Turkish Ottoman Empire encircling the city, Sultan Mehmed brought the newest technology of the 15th century, the cannon, and finally brought down the walls of the world's most impregnable fortress. History's Turning Points is a thirteen part series on decisive moments in world history.
